I really hope whoever scores the next UFC broadcast deal doesn't schedule live sporting events before live UFC events. I hate missing fights.

So the guy who came into the UFC 1-0 straight from the undercard of the bush leagues isn't UFC-ready? Shocker.

Honestly, neither Brown or Gall are really ready yet. I see them both losing more fights.

@mikeyg

Brown and Gall really shouldn't be in the UFC in the first place.  There a bunch of fighters that should be in the UFC more than these guys like Michael Chandler and Pat Curran.

@Green, Yeah, I agree.

Holy **** that slam by Anderson was huge. I think OSP is gonna get grinded on, damn, not a good sign early on for OSP to get styled on like this.

10-9 Anderson

OSP ended strong, but that was all Anderson.

Round 2 was probably more dominant than Round 1. Thinkin' OSP needs a finish.
